Back In Melbourne and I had, for some time, been trying to coincide a meeting with Mary, my old Irish backpacking friend. We hadn't seen, or spoken, to each other in 30 years but had corresponded via email etc over the years. She had been in and out of Aus and over to New Zealand and was having her last day in Melbourne before flying back to Ireland. We had arranged to meet and have lunch and when we spotted each other in the park it was a truly wonderful reunion.....she was just as she was 30 years ago and we talked non stop for the afternoon, recalling our time together in New Zealand when we were young and adventurous...oh, that's right we're still young and adventurous! I'm amazed that we managed to eat, and Steve and her dear old Aunt Pat were lucky to get a word in. Mary...let's not wait another 30 years!
